NFL: New England 27, Miami 17

FOXBOROUGH, Mass., Oct. 27 (UPI) -- Tom Brady overcame a slow start Sunday, tossing a second-half touchdown pass to help rally the New England Patriots over Miami 27-17.

Brady, after posting his worst first-half performance in a decade, regrouped after the break as the Patriots (6-2) erased a 14-point deficit and scored 24 unanswered points thanks to a trio of Miami turnovers and two missed field goals.
